The sea, quietly arranged for you.

Twelve crewed yachts, captains who know every cove from Antibes to the Cyclades, and a week that unfolds at the speed of the wind. Tell us where; we handle the rest.

Charter, reconsidered

A quieter kind of luxury.

No brochure itineraries, no rushed crews. Every Nautivo yacht is run by a captain who has sailed her for years, a chef who shops the morning market and a charter manager who answers the phone at midnight.

  • One point of contact from first call to farewell
  • Crews that stay: average 6 seasons on the same yacht
  • Routes planned around your family, not the timetable

Guest log

Written in the visitors’ book.

The route map arrived three weeks before we flew in. By day four we had thrown it away and let the captain choose the coves. Both were right.

Seven nights on Kalypso with three families. The crew made it feel like the boat was ours and the chef ruined restaurants for us.

Professional, calm and honest about the weather. They moved our crossing by a day and it was the right call.

Charter questions.

The yacht, a professional crew, linen, towels and water toys. Fuel, food, drinks and berth fees are paid from the APA, an advance of around 30% of the charter fee that is fully accounted for.

For July and August, six to nine months. Shoulder season weeks in May, June, September and October are often available at shorter notice and up to 25% less.

Always. The itinerary is a plan, not a contract. Your captain will adapt to the wind, the sea and your mood.

Not for a crewed charter. For bareboat yachts one of your party needs a recognised skipper licence and radio certificate.

50% deposit on signing, balance eight weeks before embarkation. Charter insurance is available and strongly recommended.
